One of the longest dragons in North America, at 100-metres, highlighted Chinese New Year celebrations in Richmond, BC.  Huge crowds of all nationalities were wowed by the dragons, cultural dancing, Tai Chi demonstrations and more.  A high-flying lion dance was a spectacular delight and something you have to see to believe.  The day was filled with fun, entertainment and great food!  It finished off with a concert by the hottest band out of Taiwan, F.I.R and some amazing fireworks!  What a way to ring in the year of the tiger!
